  • I can't really imagine why someone would choose Safari over Firefox. Adblock Plus alone seems like pretty compelling reason. Add to that all the about:config tweaks, Tab Mix Plus, greasemonkey, and the thousands of other extensions and skins, plus …
  • I think I need (want) one. Who uses them and what do you use them for? I have one. I can't remember the last time I used it. Seems like something could be worked out here.
  • Minneap, Madison, Bloomington, Ann Arbor, but no CHICAGO? Duluth too. Duluth!
  • Did some ripping today: Spring - s/t [1972] front: gatefold: back: The Honeys - The One You Can't Have [1963] Dennis Wilson - Pacific Ocean Blue
  • Landlocked_[1971].zip
  • Hey dude, thanks for this. I've been debating getting that box set forever, but I could never pull the trigger because all I really wanted was the vocal stuff, and I couldn't justify paying $40+ for just those tracks. I'd like to pay you back someh…
  • yall need to this tiny gadget holds thousands of different pieces of art, replicated perfectly as zeroes and ones. user-friendly. revolutionary. the first. the best. there is no competition. The first? Not even close. The best? Depends o…
  • The best stores I??ve been to share a few key characteristics: There??s good lighting, so you can actually see the condition of the record and not be surprised when you come into the daylight after visiting some vinyl-dungeon. The crates are actu…
  • "Wherever You Go" by Skip Mahoney and the Casuals was the first thing that popped in my head when I saw this thread. Also, can't believe nobody's repping the Beach Boys. Dozens of great examples there.
  • Paul Siebel - Woodsmoke and Oranges Pieces of a Dream - We Are One
  • the og version of sleep dirt without the vocals is a GOAT for me and IMHO his best guitar lp as far as sick guitar tracks Black Napkins Ship Ahoy watermelon in easter hay/outside now Inca Roads Yo Momma toad o line filthy habits/sleep dirt/the o…
  • Re: Joes - I have this. I am down like the Central [giggle] Scrutiniser on this and I rate it as 50% ramble (which is acceptable over the length and it IS a "Concept" album). I think I need more of those ill grooving instrumental jamz. Ones wit…
  • The most surprised I can remember being is when I was in high school looking for shirts at my small-town Iowa thrift shop. The records at this place were strictly terrible, and the all the years I lived there, I only found two that I bought. One was…
  • I'm in the process of moving and I need some advice on how to move my vinyl. I'm having movers put them in storage and I'm not sure how to pack them. Any suggestions? The Uhaul "Small Box."
  • Whipped this off for a tape exchange last month. All commons, and a little clumsy, but it came off more or less like I wanted. http://www.divshare.com/download/703099-0ef A: 1. Cannonball Adderley Quintet - Soul Virgo/Rumplestiltskin 2. Marvin Gay…

  • Is Spencer Davis - "I'm a Man" too obvious? There's also that corny disco version by Macho.
  • Ditto on the Charles Earland. That record is hot as hell. Other favorites are Johnny Griffin, Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis (esp. love the late-50s "Cookbook" stuff), Shirley Scott (esp. the Oliver Nelson-arranged sets like "For Members Only"), and Jimmy S…
  • If it's late and I'm drunk, I always throw on JB's "World, pt. 1" on 33. Sounds good to my ears.
  • I just scanned through, but I don't think I saw Mike Theodore Orchestra's "The Bull," People's Choice's "Boogie Down U.S.A." album, or the Salsoul Orchestra's "Nice 'n Naasty." All classics.
  • white sox fuck the yankees when i was a kid i was a cubs fan, until i was about 10 and realized how much cheaper sox tickets were. plus the logo looked cooler, it was '93 and they were actually good (until the strike at any rate) and, of late, the…
  • In college I remember a friend did a presentation looking at the parallels and overlaps of bluegrass and reggae Do you remember any of the specifics here? I assume he's not just talking about Sam Bush doing "Is This Love."
  • They've had these in Chicago for a couple years now. I'm actually a little offended by it. I can imagine the guy who thought it up riding to work, furious that there's a spot left in the city that doesn't have an ad message, and scheming to fill it.
  • Just throwing in a link to the other recent post-a-mix thread to avoid cross-posting. http://www.soulstrut.com/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=0&Board=crates&Number=831529&
  • Have you been to the new Velvet, Deej? I've been meaning to check it. You can't go wrong with the Green Mill, which is open super late and has live music every night. It's pretty far from the Loop though, probably a $15-plus cab ride. Andy's is …
  • Also...those mid-period JT joints (from the '68-'71 era) all sound like leftover Sam & Dave songs that Sam & Dave never cut. Really, can't you see them doing "Who's Making Love," "Take Care Of Your Homework," "Hijackin' Love," "I Could Neve…
  • Picked up a copy of his Chronicles Volume Two for next to nothing when I first started digging and the moment I heard It's September I was sold on the man's music. Such a great song, love it when he screams Happy Thanksgiving.. 'It's September' was…

  • Hey I watched the doc yesterday at work, and meant to say how solid it is. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.
